Partial Feeds Or Full Feeds?
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
You decide
Yeah you read that right. We started My Today Screen with full feeds, that is you would get the full article in your feed reader. When we asked for suggestions to improve the site, there were a few asking for feeds to be partial. So we went partial and immediately there were comments and emails asking for full feed. What do we do?
Give you the option to choose either that is. So now, you can either subscribe to full feeds or partial feeds and you can do it via RSS and emails. Hopefully everybody’s happy now because you all got what you want. I know I am.

Can you have something that is more than partial, b ut not quite full? Just kidding.
Choice is always good.
Hahaha. Nice one
FUUULLLL!!!!!
And now you have it
Is the RSS glass half full or half empty?
I prefer it full myself.
Personally, I prefer the partial feed, but I think it is great that we can offer everyone the feed that they prefer. Now, if anyone asks for part full and part partial…well, I suppose then you would be out of luck. But i am starting to feel like Burger King. We do feeds the way you want your feeds done. :P)

Cool - now I can have full feeds on my PPC, and partial ones on my laptop!
Thanks!
That’s what I am thinking you would probably do.
You’re welcome
Hehe yeah, was no real surprise after I mentioned it the other day. Still need to work on my feeds a bit, NewsBreak is painfully slow with updating these days and I don’t know if the problem is in my internet connections, in a problematic feed, or in some other part of my device. But I like to postpone sometimes.
Thanks, personally I prefer the full feeds.
By the way, I’m encountering a lot of problem with the site today. Most of the time that I try to access the site or a post in the site, I only get the upper banner, and have to refresh a few times to get the content itself.
We were updating the site a bit yesterday so that could be the problem. If you are still encountering the problem, do send us an email.
The partial feed is great on the mobile, I only want to check out what I want to read when i get to a PC! Great work!
And comment editing Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Peter. Glad you are enjoying yourself here
One more thing @ Tariq, is etenblog archived anywhere! seeing as links to eten blog point here now!
It is archived if you know which feeds to access directly. I do plan to move some of the articles over to My Today Screen gradually though.
I’m a full feed person meself. Esp for RSS readers on WM where PIE can’t exactly do crap. At least I can read the article within the reader.
